Wafaifo Resort Hoi An, Opens Royal Garden – A Luxury Vietnamese Royal Longevity Sanctuary

Wafaifo Resort Hoi An has unveiled Thượng Uyển Royal Garden, a new luxury enclave combining the elegance of Vietnam’s royal heritage with contemporary design and elevated hospitality.

Wafaifo Resort is a luxury lifestyle resort. Located only a 10-minute walk from the UNESCO Hoi An ancient city. Perfect for exploring the unique culture of Vietnam. It first opened its doors in September 2024.

Guests entering the Royal Garden are welcomed into a serene environment of winding stone paths, lotus ponds, and lantern-lit courtyards that echo the traditions of Hoi An’s ancient gardens. The enclave features 16 suites across three distinctive categories: the Big Suite, the Bigger Suite, and the expansive Seagull Suite, the largest of the collection.

The Seagull Suite is a true private sanctuary, complete with its own infrared sauna, steam facilities, and clawfoot bathtub. All suites offer panoramic garden views, refined detailing, and their own in-room private bar with a fully stocked wine fridge, allowing guests to enjoy a personalised luxury experience.

Opening soon, the next phase of Royal Garden will unveil the Verita Health VIP Longevity Sanctuary, the most advanced centre of its kind in Central Vietnam. Far more than a spa, it combines cutting-edge longevity science with specialised recovery therapies for athletes and active travellers. Signature treatments include hyperbaric oxygen chambers, floatation therapy, advanced IV infusions (including NAD+), infrared sauna, and ice bath rituals. In addition, advanced cellular rejuvenation options such as NK cell therapy and stem cell therapy will be available, positioning the centre at the forefront of scientific longevity and recovery care.

Complementing the accommodation and wellness journey will be Coi Nguon Restaurant, where every dish is designed as a celebration of Hoi An’s land and waters. The restaurant follows a farm-to-table philosophy, sourcing exclusively from the Hoi An area and the organic Tra Que Village. Menus highlight authentic flavours such as snails gathered from rice paddies and a deconstructed version of the iconic cao lầu noodle dish, each plate a creative yet respectful homage to Hoi An’s culinary heritage. Presented with artistry, every meal becomes both a discovery and a memory.

Privately owned Wafaifo Resort Hoi An is a new boutique hotel in the UNESCO-listed heritage city of Hoi An, Da Nang city, central Vietnam. Opened in December 2024, the resort offers 134 rooms and suites, the signature Xua & Nay bistro with Josper Grill, a 25 x 6-metre pool, Swim City pool bar and activity zone, Bang Huu coffee shop, eight-seat private cinema, kids’ club, fitness centre, wellness facilities, retail shop, and complimentary bicycles and WiFi.
